Ah, this will be a short-lived validator, my engine fix for this is already in 💪 It will be in UE 5.6, but you can cherry-pick it from UE's github page here: github.com/EpicGames/UnrealE… (you need to be logged into UE Github) #uetips
In my latest presentation on "Myth-busting UE Best-Practices" I mentioned that empty Ticks still run and you pay the Tick price, even though they're not doing anything. I just added a validator to the article to detect these in your project: github.com/Flassari/CommonVa… #uetips

It does NOT make it so that new actors have their "Start with Tick Enabled" property disabled. It never has, so I'm surprised people are still recommending this, anyone who would've tried it would've noticed immediately that it didn't do that. 🧵

Ubisoft confirms that its total headcount is down 2,000 over the past two years. Its total number of employees worldwide was 19,410 in September 2023, it now has 18,666 as of September 2024. So down 744 in the past year and around 1.3k in the year prior to that.

The Day Before studio is up to its old tricks, asking people to design maps for free in a contest whose lucky winner will get their work in a game, a free copy, and no money whatsoever. trib.al/iVE9yey

🧵 So I guess the cat is out of the bag. I was fired from @Microsoft on Thursday, hours after a vigil we organized to honor and remember the lives of Palestinians killed by American-funded and Microsoft-empowered Israeli genocide.

We're working on a sequel to Subnautica! It's using Unreal Engine 5 and you can play with friends. It's been really interesting to have been on this project since it's inception and see it evolve. Hope you all enjoy when it's released into Early Access next year.
🚨 Warning: Oxygen Low 🚨 The first teaser trailer for Subnautica 2 just dropped! Check it out now and wishlist the game on Steam, Epic, or Xbox ➡️ unknownworlds.com/en/news/su… #Subnautica #Subnautica2

I just learned Rider supports general C++ now 👀 Rider is a superior product and I never want to touch Visual Studio ever again.
